GOBLIN MOTH CURE.
The Value of Arsenites in Exterminatinz
Fruit Tree Parasites.

Fruit Tree Parasites.
More than eight years ago 1 demon
strated the value and safety of the ar
senites in fighting the Goblin moth.
Acting upon that information would
have saved millions of dollars to the
country each year. Slowly orchardists
have been led to try the remedy and
are convinced of its excellence. 1t con-
sists in spraying every bearing tree
when the apples are about the size of
peas, with either London purple or Paris
green. | prefer the purple as it is
cheaper, mixes more readily, and is less
liable to burn the foliage. Use pound
of the poison to one hundred gallons of
water. or if any change be made to
these proportions make it more rather
than less dilute. When so dilute it can
be more thoroughly applied. without
danger of harming the foliage. The
point is to get the poison on every fruit;
the very slightest particle seems suffi-
cient. l urge against the use of white
arsenic. If left by careless hands it
may easily be mistaken for culinary arti-
cles and bring death and mourning into
the home But the color of London
purple and Paris green forms the skull
and cross-bones which warns from
danger
Spray the trees Just as the blossoms
have fallen, when the apples are the
size of small peas, and spray only once
Many fail in part by delaying too long.
1t kills the insects by being eaten. If
the larvae have Matched and entered the
apples previous to the application, of
course the remedy does no good. In
several cases / saved over ninety-fve
per cent. of the apples, and in more
than one case not single affected fruit
adjacent not sprayed was seriously in
jured. The liquid must be thrown with
great force, dashed on to the tree SO it
will spatter and fly all among the foil
age so that every colyx of the fruit
shall receive its minute grain of the
poison. For few trees q hand-pump
will serve admirably; for large or
chard the poison should be put into Il
close barrel and drawn in n wagon
through the orchard. Securely fasten
the barrel into the wagon and the force
pump firmly to the barrel Every now
and then lower the end of the hoseAto
the bottom OF the barrel, and work the
pump to stir up the poison.
This stirring is very necessary, as the
mineral is heavier than the water and
sinks. When making the mixture it
pays to grind the mineral in a little
water, then mix in the larger volume.
This secures against Jumps. In apply
ing any liquid to plants to destroy in.
sects-as kerosene and soap for plant
lice, or pyrethrum for cabbage cater
pillars-the throwing with force should

Mean and Cruel.

1t is cruel thing to send boy out
into the world untaught that alcohol in
any form is fire and will certainly burn
him if he puts it into his stomach. 1t
is cruel thing to educate a boy in
such a way that he has no adequate
idea OF the dangers that beset his path.
1t is mean thing to send q boy out to
take place in society without under
standing the relation of Temperance to
his own safety and prosperity and that
of society. The National wealth goes
into the ground. If we could only
manage to bury it without having it
pass thitherward in the form of @
poisonous liquid through the inflamed
bodies of our neighbors and friends,
happy should we be. But this great
abominable curse dominates the world.
The more thoroughly we can instruct
the young concerning this dominating
evil, the better it will be for them and
for the world.-J. G. Holland.
